How to watch the NFL on Fox

Fox, as one of the four major US TV networks, is carried by all pay-TV cable providers, so if you have a cable subscription then you have access to your local Fox station and the NFL on Fox. Another option is a TV antenna, which can receive all local station signals, including Fox.

Live TV streaming services have become a popular alternative to traditional cable, but consumers can still get access to their local Fox stations through many of these services, including Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV and YouTube TV.

Fox does not have its own streaming service, but if you are a subscriber to a traditional or live TV streaming service that carries the network, you can use that login to get the game on the Fox Sports app.

You can also stream your local Fox NFL game on NFL Plus, but only through a mobile phone or tablet.

UK NFL fans that are interested in how they can watch the weekly NFL games that air on Fox should know that free-to-air broadcaster ITV is taking over NFL broadcasts in the UK (from the BBC).

There are some additional paid-for options to watch NFL games in the UK, including Sky TV and the NFL Game Pass subscription service.

Best NFL game on Fox this week

Two teams that are a bit of a surprise this NFL season square off, as the Atlanta Falcons head to Denver to take on the Broncos. While these two aren't in the same conference, this game could have playoff implications as each looks to hold onto their spot.

For the Falcons, it is their two-game lead in the NFC South (though they did already get the season sweep of their closest divisional rival, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers). They've built that lead largely on their offense and the strong season for Kirk Cousins, who is third in passing yards this season and has helped young Falcons players like Drake London, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson play some of their best football of their careers. Overall, the Falcons offense is fifth in total yards per game and averaging nearly 24 points per game. Defense has been more suspect and they have not been good rushing the passer (they rank last in the league with nine sacks).

Denver, who is at 5-5 and currently in a wild card spot, is the opposite. Their defense has been among the best in the league so far, allowing less than 300 yards per game, less than 18 points per game and is second in the league in sacks with 35. Offensively they're a work in progress with rookie quarterback Bo Nix under center, though he's started to put some solid games together. A win would stop their two-game losing streak (in fairness to Baltimore and the Chiefs, and the latter was a heartbreaking last second loss) and keep them in legit playoff conversation.
